November 10, 2017

It was a short but busy week in Room 118! I hope everyone enjoys a wonderful weekend and stays warm! Happy Veteran's Day!


Literacy 
This week in Literacy we will be reading the story, A Turkey for Thanksgiving by Eve Bunting. Through reading this story we will continue to discuss our unit question, “How can we work together?” We will also discuss our weekly question, “How can we contribute to a celebration?” This week we will also be reviewing the genre of Animal Fantasy, reading words with long a (a, ai, ay), drawing conclusions and visualizing while reading.


Social Studies 
In Social Studies this past week we learned all about the very important holiday of Veteran’s Day. Students had many great stories to share about the veterans in their lives and were asked to thank a veteran for their contributions and service to our country!

Playing a vocabulary game in Daily 5's Teacher Time!

Math
This week in math we will begin Topic 6 in our curriculum which focuses on addition strategies. We will be adding tens and ones, adding using a hundred chart and adding multiples of 10! We will also start to practice our 9's facts this week! 

We continue to discuss the "Power of Yet" as we build growth mindsets!
